NOVEL NEXT Chapter 168
Chapter 168: What If I Suddenly Died?
“What are you talking about? There’s an injured person here!”
Fei Ren never expected that even after running to the hospital, she would still be obstructed. She anxiously said, “He has lost too much blood from his shoulder wound, if we don’t treat him soon—”
“It’s none of my business.”
However, the slender man shrugged indifferently, “There are already enough people here. I don’t want anyone else to come and take up medical resources!”
“You—”
In this situation, Fei Ren was so anxious that she was sweating profusely! At the same time, she felt a surge of anger towards the man in front of her! Just now, she and the boy named Bai Yu had fought desperately against the cat monsters outside to ensure that all participants could survive!
This person didn’t join them in battle, and instead occupied the hospital during this time, now blocking her path to save a life!
No! He can’t die! Absolutely not!
Thinking this, Fei Ren clenched her katana tightly… Although she wouldn’t think of killing the man in front of her, using the back of the sword to knock him out and rushing in was still possible.
How interesting… Even though she could feel her extreme anxiety to save me, she still hasn’t shown any murderous intent under such circumstances.
Lying on Fei Ren’s soft body, Bai Yu couldn’t help but think amusingly: If I suddenly died right now, would she be driven by anger to tear this man apart?
Although it was tempting, Bai Yu didn’t rush into action. After all, in his view, the bond between him and Fei Ren wasn’t strong enough yet. He merely helped her block an attack once. In his eyes, that was far from enough…
In short, it wasn’t the right time yet.
As he thought this, Bai Yu was about to do something… But then he noticed someone sneakingly peering through the glass on the second floor and quickly disappearing.
Huh?
At this moment, Fei Ren had already grabbed her katana and was ready to charge! The slender man also raised his machete with a sinister grin, “Since you want to die so badly, then I—”
“Rute! Stop!”
But at this moment, an old man with a kind face walked over. Although he looked like he had white hair, he stood straight and moved steadily. He walked over with his hands behind his back and said, “I asked you to guard the hospital entrance to prevent magic beasts, not to prevent people! How could you block the injured person outside? Isn’t that neglecting human life?”
“But you said—”
The slender man named Rute was about to say something, but the old man glared at him fiercely, and he dared not say another word and stood still…
“Girl, take him to the second floor for treatment!”
Then, the old man turned to Fei Ren and said, “There are people on the second floor who specialize in these matters. They will soon bandage him up!”
“Thank you!”
Without thinking much, Fei Ren left a sentence and rushed upstairs carrying Bai Yu, not even bothering to look at the elevator and charging up the stairs directly!!
“Boss.”
After Fei Ren reached the second floor, Rute whispered in confusion, “But you clearly told me before—”
“The plan has changed.”
However, the old man maintained his kind expression and said, “And… you can’t stop her.”
————
It was unclear how long had passed… It was nighttime when Fei Ren rubbed her eyes slowly waking up. At this moment, she was sitting on the bedside, her cheek resting on the blanket. Clearly, she had fallen asleep while taking care of Bai Yu…
She was still human after all, and having experienced so many things in one day naturally made her extremely exhausted… Therefore, after Bai Yu’s wounds were stopped and bandaged, Fei Ren finally couldn’t hold on and collapsed onto the bed.
“How long have I been sleeping…”
Opening her eyes, Fei Ren first looked at Bai Yu on the bed… His breathing was steady, indicating he was fine. But then she suddenly thought of something!
How long has it been! Tang Si is still locked in the basement! Although the food left for her should be sufficient… Fei Ren was still very uneasy!
Thinking this, Fei Ren instinctively wanted to go to the basement! But just as she got up, a voice suddenly sounded…
“Where are you going?”
Opening her eyes, Bai Yu looked at the young girl in front of him with a concerned expression and softly said, “Take a rest. You’ve already worked hard protecting me…”
“There’s still a girl in the basement!”
To this, Fei Ren said urgently, “I have to go save her—”
“But you’re also tired—”
Bai Yu reached out and grabbed Fei Ren’s wrist, saying, “Before you think about saving others, you must take care of yourself first. Otherwise, you might not only fail to save others but also put yourself in danger!”
Dream Yue had also told her something similar.
Looking at the young man in front of her, Fei Ren felt a strange sensation… At such a time, she actually thought of Dream Yue, who often told her that if her body broke down first, how could she continue fighting the monsters?
“And it’s dangerous at night. Let’s find her tomorrow, okay?”
With Bai Yu saying this, Fei Ren could only sit helplessly in the chair. Only then did she realize that Bai Yu had been holding her wrist all along, which made her face show a slightly unnatural expression.
In her sixteen years of life, Fei Ren had never been so close to a male of her age. Therefore, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. Realizing this, Bai Yu quickly let go of her tender wrist, feeling awkward and apologizing, “Sorry… I was too anxious…”
“It’s okay…”
Fei Ren naturally wouldn’t make a big deal out of this. Thus, both fell into an awkward silence… Then Bai Yu spoke first, “Come to think of it, I find you familiar. Did you accidentally bump into a somewhat small person recently?”
“Yes… How did you know?”
Upon hearing this, Fei Ren immediately showed a curious expression… But soon she realized something and asked in surprise, “Are you the friend he mentioned who also likes wooden swords??”
“Yes… What a coincidence! I heard him talk about this.”
To this, Bai Yu smiled and said, “I’ve always wanted to come to your dojo to learn, but I haven’t had the time… Who would have thought our first meeting would be like this.”
